Abstract
A radar apparatus is provided that can correctly extract the necessary point for a determination related to the safe travel of one's automotive vehicle among objects such as automotive vehicles moving at an angle in front and constructed objects. The radar apparatus of the present invention provides antennas that transmit beams in a plurality of directions and receive the reflected waves from objects as received signals. The objects that generated these reflected waves are detected. In addition, this radar apparatus provides a reflected location detection device that detects the reflected locations that are the generation source of the reflected waves for this plurality of directions, a grouping device that groups each of these detected reflected locations into a group of single or plural reflected locations assuming they belong to the same object, and a device that extracts reflected locations having the shortest distance from the moving body from among these grouped reflected locations to serve as reference points related to the safe travel of this moving body.
